    Put 2 or 4 sand bags in your boot / trunk above the wheal arches for more traction on take off. That's what the Australian police did with the 1986 VL commodore pursuit which had a 6 cylinder turbo engine with a very high power to weight ratio with traction problems on take off. and that soled there problem.

    Were Z06 direct fit or did you need to open up the hub bore? ZL1 calipers too? Knuckle swap? Or did they bolt on and swap lines?

    • @MickelsonRacingChannel
      @MickelsonRacingChannel  3 года назад +1

      Thanks! I purchased the car with the ZL1 brakes already on it. I understood it to be a bolt on modification! Also, the C6 Z06 wheels were bolt on, but much modification to the rear suspension and wheel wells to fit the width. Also running 325/30/19’s in the rear. The wide tires create clearance issues.
